Hello Gentle Reader
Please Note: This is all a political/personal opinionated essay, I do not care if you agree or disagree, and to be frank, I am not open to discussing or changing my mind on this entire matter – further more I am not open for discussion/arguing/debating this matter either. We are all entitled to our opinion whether we agree with them or not.
It is very rare – and by very rare, I certainly do mean very rare. It is very seldom in fact, that I do care to even bother, to write about politics, and economics, and all other great conversation and debate beginners – also great way to destroy family dinner, and make that “happy positive (wrapped in cellophane of falsity),” family reunion, into a raging gladiator arena, family member against family member, and sit back and watch to see who wins the battle. It’ll become no surprise that as a Canadian and not to mention Albertan, that I am more than against the concept of the proposed, and greatly controversial “Keystone Pipeline,” that the government of Canada and Alberta tries to spoon feed to the people, that it is good for the Canadian Economy and Albertan Economy. However, if one really wishes to look at, it does not do much for Canada, in economic ways. It does do some good for those, select who have a great stake in the business of the Albertan Oil Sands; however it does no good for the average Canadian or Albertan. Nothing. No new jobs (besides building the pipeline) et cetera. Furthermore, this does nothing for the new concept of the great debate about the validity of the concept of “Canadian Sovereignty,” when the politicians, are nothing more than little puppets (ventriloquist dummies) sitting on the laps of foreign countries, having the stick in the back being pulled, and the voice saying what the ventriloquist (in other words the foreign power’s voice) and how good the foreign powers influence is on, Canada, and what it means to Canada – further lengthening the nose of the lies coming from the wooden man on the lap, that we as Canadians would refer to as “The Canadian Government.” It brings to question now what use is it to vote in and elect officials, who do nothing but sit on the lap of another country, let it do the talking, let it speak, let it manoeuvre through Canada’s resources and then take them – of course they do pay for them, but not at the same price, that they would if Canada, had the monopoly on the resources themselves, by Canadian Companies, using Canadian Workers, and being sold at a much more economically situated price. Which brings me to the further proposition on the absurdity of this situation.
The Oilsands are often referred to as Albertan Oilsands. Then why on earth does, Alberta not have any refiners up in Northern Alberta? Why do the oil companies send all the unrefined oil and gas, to Eastern Canada to be refined? To send it via pipeline should cost the same amount of money as to build the refiners here. Furthermore to build and to operate the refiners should open up plenty more jobs for both Albertans and Canadians in general. Riddle me that I do say. How can such a large oil producer, be so ill-equipped and unprepared, to have the drilled and refined in the same area.
But to discuss and question the concept of Canadian Sovereignty and its validity in now this new chapter of Canada and its own time of being a country – being relatively new; is a question that Canadians need to ask themselves. Is Canada really a sovereign nation? Just because a piece of paper, says that this country is sovereign does not mean anything in reality. Calling a cow, a sheep does not make it a sheep anymore then calling sheep a cow. The entire concept of Canada and its need for “protection(ism),” from other countries is pathetic, degrading, and disrespectful. Just as the concept of Canada selling out the countries resources, minerals, and everything else for quick money – but not necessarily at its full price, and at its power of creating jobs. Canada is a great country – do not get me wrong on that; but as a Canadian, there is a long unspoken tradition that Canadians despise the government and not just all, but all countries. Most Canadians prefer someone of moderation in power, who does little, and does not sell the country short nor does it sell the resources at a undervalued price(s), not to mention is willing to stand by the country and its peoples values, even if they are seen as unpopular. But the most important aspect of that I consider as a Canadian is a politician who is willing who doesn’t sit on a foreign power’s lap, and has no voice, but just moving those wooden lips. It’s about a politician who is a Canadian Elected official, and is willing to stand by that stand point, and stand up for a country rich in resources, and make the country as wealthy as possible, and as much money as possible.
Proud To Be Canadian
